Eagles release undrafted rookies Jaeden Roberts and Dae'Quan Wright
Summary

The Philadelphia Eagles have released undrafted rookies Jaeden Roberts and Dae'Quan Wright as part of roster moves on August 11, 2026. Roberts, an offensive lineman from Alabama, and Wright, a tight end from Ole Miss, struggled to make an impact in training camp following their undrafted status. Wright had previously impressed in spring practices but did not perform well during camp. The team has placed running back Elijah Mitchell on injured reserve and signed several players, indicating efforts to strengthen the roster. Dallas Goedert, Johnny Mundt, and Eli Stowers are now positioned as the primary tight ends, while Roberts’ absence opens up opportunities for other offensive linemen.
